Pumpkin Sticky Buns
Pumpkin Sticky Buns are an indulgent treat high in sugar and calories. However, pumpkin puree adds vitamin A, fiber, and antioxidants. To make them slightly healthier, consider using whole wheat flour for part of the all-purpose flour to increase fiber content. You could reduce sugar in the filling and topping or use a natural sweetener like maple syrup. Adding chopped nuts to the filling can introduce healthy fats and protein. While delicious, these buns are best enjoyed in moderation as an occasional treat. Consider balancing your meal by pairing a small bun with a protein-rich breakfast like Greek yogurt or eggs, and some fresh fruit for added nutrients and fiber.
